' This invention has to do with a new and novel mineral oil composition and, more particularly, has to do with a mineral oil composition containing minor proportions'of an oil-soluble detergent and of an oil-soluble, phosphorusand sulfurcontainingreaction product.

It is well known to those familiar with the art that mineral oils are generally characterized by one or more undesirable characteristics which limit their use. One such characteristic is their instability under operating conditions normally encountered in present day engines, such that after a relatively short time, metal engine parts become contaminated with sludge, lacquer and resinous materials. In many instances, the said materials form in and about piston rings causing them to stick, the phenomenon being referred to as ring-sticking. As a consequence of the instability of the oil, engine operating efficiency is seriously reduced. Another undesirable characteristic of mineral oils is their tendency to oxidize, whereupon acidic materials are formed.

These acidic materials corrode metal engine parts, particularly alloy bearings such as those' of the cadmium-silver, copper-lead, etc., type.

It is also well known in the art that numerous materials have been proposed as improving or fortifying agents for use in mineral oils to counteract or retard the aforesaid undesirable characteristics. Of the improving agents previously proposed, oil-soluble metal sulfonates have been found to be satisfactory in imparting detergent properties to mineral oils. Unfortunately, how.- ever, such sulfonates fail to improve, and in some cases even impair, other characteristics of mineral oils. In some instances, for example, metal sulfonates-have increased the formation of acidic materials in mineral oils during use, thus inducing corrosion of metal parts with which the oils come in contact.

It has now been found that the corrosion and oxidation characteristics of an oil containing a small amount of an oil-soluble metal sulfonate can be greatly improved by incorporating therewith a small amount of an' oil-soluble, phosphorusand sulfurcontaining reaction product of a dicyclic terpene and a phosphorus sulfide. More specifically, it has been found that an extremely stable oil having outstanding detergent, oxidation and corrosion characteristics is obtained by incorporating in an oil containing a metal sulfonate, a small amount of a reaction product of the aforesaid type. It has also been found that oils similarly characterized are obtained by incorporating a small amount of the said reaction 2 product into oils containing small amounts of oil-solublesalts of organic acids, which possess detergent properties.

All oil-soluble 'metal sulfonates are contemplated herein, typical of which are those obtained from aromatic hydrocarbons or substituted aromatic hydrocarbons, and ,a sulfonating agent such as strong sulfuric acid, oleum, chlorsulfonic acid and the like. Other typical sulfonates are those obtained by treatment of paraflins, naphthenes and various petroleum fractionspar-- afflnic, naphthenic or aromatic-with the same reagents. Preferred, howeven'are the metal salts of sulfonic acids of wax-substituted benzene and naphthalene, wherein the wax substituent is a long-chain aliphatic hydrocarbon group containing at least about 18 carbon atoms and is obtained from paraffin wax. All metals are contemplated herein as constituents of the said metal sulfonates. Especially suitable, however, are calcium, barium and zinc.

It is to be understood that when the metal substituent is polyvalent, basic as well as neutral metal sulfonates are obtained and serve the purposes of this invention. Typical and preferred sulfonates are the sodium, basic calcium, basic barium, neutral barium, zinc and dibasic aluminum salts of diwax-benzene sulfonate. Several such materials are described in further detail hereinafter in the examples.

As indicated hereinabove, oils containing other deter-gentsoil-soluble salts of organic acids possessing cleansing or detergent action in oilare also substantially improved in character when a small amount of the aforesaid oil-soluble, phosphorusand sulfur-containing reaction product of a phosphorus sulfide and a dicyclicterpene is incorporated therein. Typical oil detergents contemplated herein are: metal salts of carboxylic acids, as a calcium salt of an alkylated carboxylic acid; metal salts of hydroxyaromatic oarboxylic acids, as a barium phenate-carboxylate -of an alkyl-substituted phenol carboxylic acid;

sulfides of metal salts of hydroxyaromatic carabout 100 0. Although any one of the several phosphorus sulfides. such as Pass (or PS2), P450 (or P283),- P4Sa, P285 (01 P4810), P481, etc., may be used in the preparation of the said reaction products, particularly preferred are those reaction products obtained from P285.

Dicyclic terpenes are defined hereinas those terpenes which are characterized by the presence of one double bond in the molecule and which are comprised of two ring systems. Typical of such terpenes are pinene, camphene and fenchene. Contemplated as coming within this particular designation are those materials which arepredominantly comprised of one or more dicyclic terpenes; representative of such materials are the essential or volatile oils which are predominantly comprised of such a terpene, or terpenes, and are typified by turpentine oil, the predominant constituent of which is pinene. Preferred of the dicyclic terpene reactants are pinene and turpentine oil. Accordingly, the preferred reaction products are those obtained from'PzSs and pinene, and P285 and turpentine oil.

Although a, complete understanding of the chemical composition of the reaction products contemplated here is not known at this time, a partial understanding of their composition may be realized by noting the characteristics involved in the reaction. The reaction between phosphorus pentasulfide and pinene, for example, commences at about 100 C. and is exothermic in nature. During the reaction, the reaction mixture increasesv appreciably inviscosity and little, if any, hydrogen sulfide is evolved therefrom. The reaction product obtained in this reaction contains phosphorus and sulfur in substantially the same amounts as was added in the phosphorus sulfide used. It would appear, then, that the reaction is one of addition; that is, addition of the phosphorus sulfide to the one unsaturated bond present in pinene.

While the reaction temperature for the reaction described above should be one of at least about 100 C., the preferred temperatures fall within the range of about 100 C. to about 160 C. The proportions of reactants used herein may be varied in order to prepare reaction products having different degrees of oil solublity and different degrees of oil improving power. It is preferred, however, to use about 1 mol of a phosphorus sulfide with 4 mols of a dicyclic terpene for the preparation of a reaction product readily soluble in petroleum oils. For example, when more than 1 mol of P285 is used with 4 mols of pinene, a viscous gel-like reaction product is obtained and this product is difilcultly soluble in petroleum oils. Also when less than 1 mol of P235 is used with 4 mols of pinene, a viscous oil somewhat insoluble in mineral oils is obtained after the unreacted pinene has been recovered by distillation. Accordingly, it is to be understood that while effective mineral oil improving agents of the type contemplated herein can be obtained by using different ratios of reactants, particularly preferred improving agents are those obtained by using approximately 1 mol of a phosphorus sulfide for every 4 mols of a dicyclic terpene.

There is, however, still another desirable procedure for preparing the reactionproductsv contemplated here. In order to obtain a relatively.

product, a small amount of one or more other oilsoluble, phosphorusand sulfur-containing renon-viscous reaction product, a blend of a dicyclic terpene, such as pinene, and a comparatively inert solvent such as a petroleum oil, may be treated as described above to provide an oil blend of the reaction product. The preferred action products. One such reaction product is that which is obtained by reaction of approximately 1 mol of phosphorus pentasulfide with. 4 mols of oleyl alcohol, or ocenol, at a temperature between about 125 C.'and about 150 C. for a relatively short time. These reaction products are described in further detail in copending application Serial No. 524,490, filed February 29, 1944, of Everett W. Fuller et al. I In the following examples, typical and preferred metal sulfonates and other oil-soluble metal detergents and dicyclic terpene-phosphorus sulfide reaction products are described in order to further explain the oil addition agents contemplated herein.

. Exam ne Om:

Basic barium diwax benz eize'suljonate of 126 F. was chlorinated at about C. with chlorine gas until the weight of the wax had increased about 10%. The .chlorowax (10% Cl) thus obtained was then blown with nitrogen toremove any occluded chlorine and hydrogen chloride.

One thousand and twenty (1020) parts of the excess benzene was then distilled off by warm ing to C. with a stream of N2 gas bubbling through the mixture. The monowax benzene thus formed was treated with an additional 1020 parts of chlorowax and the mixture heated to 85 C. untilreaction stopped. It was allowed to stand overnight at about 60 C. and then decantered from the settled AlCls sludge and filtered. The product consisted essentially of diwax benzene.

Five thousand two hundred (5200) parts of the diwax benzene, prepared as described above, were treated with successive 250 parts of oleum, containing 15% S03, while maintaining the temperature at 35-55 C. After 2600 parts of oleum had been added and the reaction had ceased, 3000 parts of water were added while the mixture was thoroughly stirred. An S. A. E. 30 grade motor oil (5400 parts) was then added and the mixture was allowed to settle overnight at about '75 C. The lower layer, consisting mostly of dilute sulfuric acid, was withdrawn leaving diwax benzene sulfonic acid in the upper layer. 'This upper layer was treated with 3170. parts by weight of barium hydroxide octahydrate (Ba(OH)z-8H:O)

cluded therein. The reaction mixture thus formed was heated to about 140 'C.tor about 6 hours with nitrogen gas bubbling through it to remove water and'it was then filtered through a layer of clay. Theproduct-product A-consisted 01' an approximately 50% oil blend oil basic barium diwax benzene sulfonate (analysis 5.17% barium and 1.5% sulfur).

ExAMrLE Two Zinc diwax benzene suljonate A diwax benzene sulfonic acid was prepared as described in Example 1 above and this was then treated with zinc acetate. Alter distilling of! the acetic acid, the product was filtered through clay leaving a materialproduct B-that contained 3.36% zinc and 1.6% sulfur.

EXAMPLE THREE Basic barium diwax naphthalene sulfonate the oil layer was filtered through clay. This con sisted essentially of diwax naphthalene.

The diwax naphthalene was treated with 250 parts of oleum (15% S03) by adding the latter slowly so as to keep the temperature at 40-50 C. One thousand (1000) parts of water were then added with stirring and this was followed by 500 parts of an S. A. E. 30 grade motor oil. The mixture was allowed to stand at 60-'l0 C. overnight and the oil layer was then withdrawn. This consisted essentially of 50% diwax naphthalene sulfonic acid in motor oil. This acid was treated with an excess of barium hydroxide and themixture was heated to a maximum temperature of 150 C. in the presence of a stream of nitrogen to remove the water. After filtering, the Stod dard solvent was removed by heating to 170 C. at avacuum of 5mm. This left an approximately 50% solution of the basic barium diwax benzene sulfonate in the petroleum motor oil, which is identified herein as product C. 10% Ba and 2.0% S.

ExAMr'LE Ere-Hr vanadyl oleill phthalate A moi of oleyl alcohol was reacted with a mol of phthalic anhydride to give the half ester of oleyl phthalate. This was neutralized with sodium hydroxide and the sodium salt thus formed was treated with vanadyl chloride to give the vanadyl salt of oleyl phthalate (3.94% vanadium), which EXAMPLE NINE Pinen'e-PzSs reaction product Eight hundred (800). parts by .weight of pinene and an equal weight of a motor oil (Saybolt Universal viscosity of 45 seconds at 210 F.) were heated to C. with stirring. Three hundred and twenty-six (326) parts of P285 '(a ratio of 4 mols of pinene to 1 mol of P285) were added slowly the temperature rising to C. because of the exothermic reaction. The mixture was then heated I to C. for 1 hour, 20 parts of clay were added andthe resultant mixture filtered. The filtrate,

consisting of 1842 parts by weight, was then vacuum topped at 5 mm. pressure to a pot temperature of 150 C. The residue consisting of 1693 parts by weight was a clear, viscous oilproduct X-containing 12.5% sulfur and 5.1% phosphorus.

ExAMPL TEN Oleyl alcohol-P285 reaction product Approximately 4 mols of ocenol, a commercial material consisting essentially of oleyl alcohol, and 1 mol OfPzSa were reacted at about 150 C. The resulting product-rproduct Ycontained 5.0% phosphorus and 9.8% sulfur.

. The following test results areprovided to demonstrate the properties of mineral oils containing small amounts of oil detergents and the outstandingly superior properties of mineral oils containing small amounts of the said detergents and of the aforesaid dicyclic terpene-phosphorus sulfide reaction products, which may also have in combi nation small amounts of other oil-soluble, phosphorusand sulfur-containing reaction products such as the oleyl alcohol-P285 product.

EXAMPLE ELEVEN celerator, namely iron naphthenate (commercially designated as Nuodex, 6% F8203) which greatly increases the rate of oxidation of the oil. The degree of oxidation suffered by the oil is shown by the development of. acidity therein as measured'by the neutralization number (N. N.)

' the loss in weight of the cadmium-nickel bearing and the percentage viscosity increase.

The oil used was a solvent refined oil having .a Saybolt Universal viscosity of 65 seconds at 210 F. and containing 0.17% of Nuodex.. The results or these tests are shown in Table I below.

It will be apparent from inspectionof the resuits presented in Table I that the blank oil is iunsatisfaotory in view of its 'corrosivity as shown by the neutralization number value and the bearing weight loss. The viscosity increase is also high. I When a detergent alone is added to the oil there is little or no improvement in any of these ll'actors. However, when a smallamount of the pinene-Pzss reaction product, product X, is added to the oil containing any one of the detergents, both the neutralization number formation and the bearing weight loss are greatly decreased. There also is less increase in viscosity. A corresponding improvement is obtained when small amounts of a pinene-PzSa reaction product and of an oleyl alcohol-Pass reaction product are added to an oil containing one of the detergents.

EXAMPLE TWELVE 8 I the blank oil, and a rating greater dicates an oil superior thereto. The oil used in the test. is a solvent-refined oil having an S. U. V. of 31.8 seconds at 100 F. The results are presented in Table II below.

The results presented above in Table II demonstrate that an oil containing a small amount or an oil detergent is more corrosive than the oil alone. When a small amount of a reaction prodnot of the type defined above is added to such an This test involves operating a single-cylinder C. F. R. engine containing copper-lead bearings,

at an oil'temperature of 286 F. and a jacket temperature of 212 F. The engine is stopped at various time intervals and the top bearing is weighed to determine the corrosion loss thereof. The corrosion loss is plotted against the test time interval and each run is continued until a loss of 0.200 gram is obtained. The oil is rated by dividing the time (in hours) required for a 0.200 gram loss for an oil blend, by the time (in hours) required for the same loss for a blank oil that was run in the engine immediately preceding it. A rating of less than 1 indicates an oil inferior to oil, the corrosive nature or the oil is greatly counteracted.

EXAMPLE THIRTEEN Tests of an oil, of oil blends containing'only an oil detergent, and of oil blends containing an oil detergent and an oil-soluble, phosphorus and sulfur-containing reaction product as defined above, were carried out to determine fiu'ther the comparative behavior of the unblended oil, the oil containing only the detergent and the 011 containing a detergent and said reaction product, under actual operating conditions.

In this test a single-cylinder Lauson engine was operated for 36 hours at an oil temperature of 290 F. and a jacket temperature of 212 F. The oil used was a solvent-refined oil having a Saybolt Universal viscosity of 45 seconds at 210 F. (Kinematic viscosity 5.75 at 210 F.). After 36 hours, the acidity, as measured by the neutralization number (N. N.) and the kinematic viscosity of the oil were determined. The neutrali zation number (N. N.) rating. is obtained by comparing the neutralization number of the oil blend with the neutralization number of the blank 01],,

is more acidic than the blank oil and, therefore,

inferior thereto. The results of these tests are set forth in Table III below.

The results presented in Table VI above furtherdemonstrate thesuperior quality of the preferred oil detergents, metal salts of wax-substituted aromatic hydrocarbon suli'onic acids, as evidenced by their pour depressant properties.

As contemplated by the present invention, concentrations of from about 0.5% to about 10% of an oil detergent are used in an oil fraction, but

concentrations of the order of about 4% have been found to be satisfactory for most purposes. The concentration of an oil'soluble, phosphorus- -and sulfur-containing reaction product of a dicyclic terpene and a phosphorus sulfide may be varied from about 0.1% to about 3.0%; in general, however, about 0.5% will be satisfactory.

As indicated hereinabove, the mineral oil compositions of this invention may also-contain one or more other oil-soluble, phosphorusand sulfur-containing reaction products, such as those obtained from oleyl alcohol and P285, as defined above. Oils of excellent quality are obtained withfrom about 0.25% to about 2.0% of such a reaction product, incorporated with the aforesaid quantities of an oil detergent and of a dicyclic tirpene reaction product of the type defined a ove.

Mineral oil concentrates arealso contemplated herein, such concentrates containing, substantially larger concentrations of an oil detergent and of a dicyclic terpene-phosphorus sulfide reaction product, than those enumerated above. That is, relatively large amounts of the said materials may be incorporated in an oil fraction in so which they are readily soluble, and the oil conmore of the aforesaid other oil-soluble, phos-,

centrate so obtained may thereafter be diluted with a suitable quantity of the said oil fraction V prior to use.

mineral oil concentrates may also contain one or phorusand sulfur-containing reaction products, such as those obtained from oleyl alcohol in amounts substantially in excess of those described above.

In preparing the mineral oil compositions and concentrates contemplated herein, an oil detergent and a dicyclic terpene-phosphorus sulfide reaction product, as defined hereinabove, may be incorporated in amineral oil in any one of several ways. For example, the dicyclic terpene reaction product may be added to an oil fraction containing an oil detergent; also, an oil detergent may be added to the reactants (dicyclic terpene and phosphorus sulfide) used in the preparation of the said reaction product and, in such case, will be present during the reaction. It is possible that the oil. detergent may react with These tests were made on the dicyclic terpene and phosphorus sulfide to form a complex reaction product under the reaction conditions enumerated above; the product It'is to be understood that these 11 obtained in this manner may then be added to an oil fraction. Accordingly, it will be apparent that the mineral oil compositions and concentrates of this invention are complex innature, for it is possible that an oil detergent and a dicyclic terpene-phosphorus sulfide reaction product may be present individually in an oil fraction, or may also be present therein as a physical combination or, further, may be present therein in the form of a single chemical composition. In the same connection, it will also be apparent that an oil detergent and a reaction product of the aforesaid type may enter into chemical reaction when the oil composition is used as a lubricant under certain conditions, such for example, as a lubricant in an engine operating at relatively high temperatures.

1 In view oi. the foregoing, the term "mineral oil composition, as used herein, and as recited in all;of the. appended .claims. is inclusive of all mineral oil fractions containing an oil detergent and a dicyclic terpene-phosphorus sulfide reaction product of the type defined above, inthe concentrations previously enumerated, and is inclusive of oil compositions obtained or prepared by any of the aforesaid several procedures. Correspondingly, the term mineral oil concentrate is inclusive of all mineral oil fractions containing relatively large amounts of the said oil detergent and said reaction product.

It is to be understood that the examples, procedures and oil compositions described hereinabove are illustrative only and are not to be construecias-limiting the scope of this invention thereto. For example, all dicyclic terpenes as broadly recited above may be used in place of pinene shown in the examples: however, pinene is preferred. Similarly, any phosphorus sulfide may be used in place of phosphorus pentasulfide shown in the examples, but the latter sulfide is preferred. Also, while the sulfonates and other iliustrative'oil detergents are preferred or their cla s. all compounds coming within the aforesaid definition of an oil detergent may be used.
